Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2015121100A1] Movement detection apparatus for detecting a hand movement The invention relates to movement detection apparatus (1) for detecting a hand movement like a hand gesture which may be used for controlling a computer or another device. A light emitting device emits light into tissue at the wrist (5) of a person and a light detection device detects light, which has travelled through the tissue, at the wrist and generates a light detection signal based on the detected light, wherein a hand movement determination unit determines the hand movement based on the light detection signal. When the hand moves, i.e., for instance, when it rotates or when a finger moves, the composition of the tissue, through which the light travels, and hence the light detection signal change. This change in the light detection signal can be used to reliably determine the respective movement of the hand in a way which is very convenient for the person.
